*** Al Qaeda's number two telegraphs the organization's next targets:

Osama bin Laden's deputy warned that Persian Gulf countries and Israel would be al-Qaida's next targets, according to a new videotape aired by Arab broadcaster Al-Jazeera on Monday, the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Sounds like someone's overcompensating for a tough five years.

*** The WaPo features an interactive database of September 11's victims.

*** Stephen reflects on his 9-11 experience:

Not long after 10:00, we were told to go down to the building cafeteria and await further instructions. As I left my office, I grabbed my briefcase, thinking, "The way things are going, those bozos [building security] won't let us back in." Down in the cafeteria, it didn't seem like anyone was in charge and we milled around aimlessly and anxiously. Someone had a portable radio tuned in, and when the reporter announced that the South Tower had collapsed and that 50,000 people work in the WTC every day, then it finally hit me that this was something big. At that instant, it seemed that most of those people would have died.

I was at a convention in Palm Springs, silently staring at a television screen for hours with a hundred or so other shocked souls.

*** The graphic novel adaptation of the 9-11 report is a great way to digest its originally dry contents.
